I Forged the Myth of the Ancient Overlords
Chapter 581 - 581 580. Forensic Outpatient Department_1

Chapter 581: 580. Forensic Outpatient Department_1 Chapter 581: 580. Forensic Outpatient Department_1 It’s called a pseudo-documentary, but in fact, the film Lu Ban wanted to shoot was closer to the form of reportage literature.

Reportage literature combines novels and news, filling in the detail gaps with some literary means and artistic processing, aside from being factual.

Good reportage literature, while being true to reality, is also rich in emotion and touches the audience.

For such a work, Lu Ban felt, it would definitely convince people that these characters had really existed.

Lu Ban thought about it, he could find He Jiaoyang, but He Jiaoyang himself no longer knew about Nine Streams, and he guessed he didn’t have contact information for anyone else.

And Tang Yu, whom he had met that day, must be a descendant of the Tang Family; since she was still inheriting the family business, she might have recollections or information about her predecessors.

However, Lu Ban hadn’t added her WeChat and had no idea how to contact her.

“Speaking of which, it seems she works as a forensic doctor at the Third People’s Hospital, can I go directly to talk to her?”

Lu Ban was suddenly struck with inspiration.

The next afternoon, Lu Ban changed his clothes and went straight to the Third People’s Hospital.

Walking into the hospital lobby, Lu Ban thought for a moment and decided to go to the inquiry desk for information.

A young nurse was on duty at the inquiry desk, sitting in front of a computer. When she saw Lu Ban approaching, her eyes lit up.

“Hello, how may I help you?”

The young nurse saw a handsome man with the aura of a star, and someone slightly familiar, so she immediately sat up straight with a full smile.

“Hello, I want to ask, which department should I go to if I need to find a forensic doctor?”

Lu Ban inquired.

“?”

The young nurse sized up Lu Ban from head to toe.

This man was perfectly intact, so why was he looking for a forensic doctor?

Still, adhering to her professional training, the young nurse gave Lu Ban directions.

“For forensic services, we have a specialized forensic outpatient clinic on the north side of the third floor. You can go up to the third floor and register.”

“Forensic doctors have outpatient services?”

This was new to Lu Ban.

Common doctors see patients in their clinics, so do forensic doctors see dead people?

“Yes, we do have it, although there haven’t been many people recently, but you might still have to wait in line to register, you haven’t made a reservation before, have you?”

The young nurse explained.

He had to wait in line?

Lu Ban imagined a scene where victims of various untimely deaths were sitting outside the clinic waiting with registration slips in their hands.

“Patient number 016, please, patient number 016 who died in a car accident, proceed to the consulting room.”

Then, a body with a mushed head and dislocated bones would pick up the slip and slowly walk to the autopsy table to lie down, waiting for the doctor to make the incision.

“The bone here is broken, and the internal organ rupture causing massive bleeding and brain damage is the main cause of death. On this side, the recommendation is for it to be recognized as an accidental death.”

The forensic doctor would dissect while explaining.

“Oh, thank you, doctor.”

The body would reply.

Probably something like that scene.

But when Lu Ban arrived on the north side of the third floor, he found it wasn’t quite what he’d imagined.

At least there were no dead people here.

Mostly, it was still normal people.

“Bro, why are you here?”

When Lu Ban saw a man wearing a blue work uniform, he asked.

“… I was injured by equipment on the construction site, came here for an injury report.”

The man hesitated at first, after all, someone who directly asks about one’s condition like this was absurd, but seeing how natural Lu Ban was, he was taken aback by this matter-of-fact approach and replied after a moment’s hesitation.

“Oh, I didn’t know forensic doctors could do that.”

Lu Ban somewhat understood.

Aside from death, there was this matter of injury verification that needed a forensic pathologist to handle, probably.

In fact, forensic pathologists might deal with such cases even more often.

After all, the number of bodies that really required a forensic autopsy was definitely in the minority, while the majority were those injured who needed assessment for compensation.

Lu Ban felt he had learned something new and was quite happy about it.

When his number was called, Lu Ban stood up and walked into the consultation room.

Today, only Tang Yu was on duty as the doctor here, so Lu Ban only saw her.

“Come in… Eh? It’s you?”

When Tang Yu lifted her head, she saw Lu Ban.

Because he was dressed.

Because she was wearing a white lab coat, Lu Ban found her somewhat familiar too, bearing a resemblance to Tang Que.

Perhaps girls who see dead bodies often all have this kind of look.

“Hello.”

Lu Ban greeted her.

Tang Yu straightened up a bit; her crossed legs in jeans were also retracted.

“I thought about it later and felt you looked familiar. Then I looked it up, and wow, turns out you’re the big-shot Director.”

Tang Yu was slightly reserved, whether it was because of Lu Ban’s status or curiosity about his action of coming to see her specifically.

“It’s nothing serious, just a filmmaker,” Lu Ban replied, not wasting much time.

“Dr. Tang, the thing is, there’s something I want to ask you about. It would be inconvenient here and might interfere with your work. After you get off work, just send me a message; we can have dinner and talk about it slowly.”

“…Pretty slick, huh.”

Tang Yu was taken aback; Lu Ban seemed a couple of years younger than her, but his invitation was quite practiced.

Of course, such invitations presuppose that the person looks handsome and appears refreshing, not greasy.

Otherwise, it might just be considered harassment.

They added each other on WeChat, and Lu Ban left after paying the registration fee.

He didn’t go home but found a coffee shop near the hospital. Then, he booked a table for two at a nearby restaurant with good reviews and messaged He Jiaoyang.

Motionless: Are you still alive?

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: ???

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: Is this how you greet people, Director Lu?

Motionless: Good, looks like you haven’t been possessed.

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: Is there even such a thing as possession in this world?

Motionless: There might be, who knows, maybe I’ve already been taken over.

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: Director Lu, please don’t joke like that.

Motionless: Speaking of serious matters, did your grandfather leave anything related to your cultivation sect?

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: There are some things, what about it?

Motionless: I’ve had some inspiration lately and am looking to shoot a story about your grandfathers’ or great-grandfathers’ generation. I want to interview you descendants and record it. Oh, do you also know the contact information of other sect brothers?

Silver Winged Harbinger of Doom: Ah? Shoot us?

On the other side, He Jiaoyang paused the old movie playing on his screen, which featured a Taoist catching zombies, scratching his head.

Lu Ban really had wide-ranging thoughts, considering making a film about their line of work.

Upon reflection, such ghost-catching stories indeed had been rare to come across for a long time.

However, when it came to his sect brothers, He Jiaoyang really had no clue; he had only listened to his grandfather’s stories when he was little. Later on, he had practiced based on online materials, and he hadn’t mastered the family-transmitted skills.

He decided to go back and ask his father.
